claire can you help me understand poppy.  i remember watching a few videos when they had about 4000 views and thinking it was somebody just trying too hard to make weird videos to go viral
not claire but hopefully i can help!! (*edit because i sounded kinda rude* i'm not too big on matpat's theory videos since i feel they're inaccurate a lot of the time?)

(keep in mind that this is all from an ARG point of view, and if you're not familiar with ARGs you can brush up real quick here!) 

-poppy is a celebrity, who works with (is owned by?) titanic sinclair
-her friends, plant and charlotte, have their own subplots that tie into poppy's life
-computer boy, her boyfriend, shows up towards the most recent videos

okay, fair to think mattpatt is innacurate about a lot of things often, but i think he really is more interested in sharing EVERY theory, not just the 'correct' one, you know?

WElllllll, she's a postmodern parody of modern celebrity. she's not real. she exists to represent the way that society treats celebrity.

Do I have to explain postmodernism, cause that's really hard for me to do .  I had to take a few art history classes to understand postmodernism. It's like.... cynically looking at everything you think you know about culture and prodding it with irony.

i understand it and i dont think its done very well because its too obvious that its a construction . i would give it more merit if it were believable, so we would be questioning if its reality or not .   maybe that is just me.

The song Moshi Moshi isn't actually about going to Japan, it's a song that makes fun of how pop stars go to Japan.

this isnt really a video of poppy eating a meal, its a joke about the fact that anyone would be interesting in watching a video of poppy eating a meal.

lol fair enough. i think a lotta people do question if she's real, but the more exposure she gets the harder it is to keep up the charade.

when i first started watching poppy she only got a couple hundred views on each video.

i guess how i feel is that its a cool art project i guess but it doesnt resonate with me mostly because the critiques that the maker is trying to express are obvious and nothing new , at least imo  lol

no i hear you. i know you aiint bein a hater, u wanna know what my obsessions about lmao. 

there was a looooot more mystery when all this started. i wasnt evven sure titanic was her director when all of this started. its been a long journey. 


i do think though that no one has ever taken something like this this far, like poppy is in charachter even during interviews. so while they arent saying anything new, their dedication to continue saying it impresses me.
